The Eastern Missouri Laborers' District Council sponsors several events throughout the year that benefit members and that benefit charitable organizations.

Each year, the Council offers one $1,500 scholarship to one member’s child from each of our 11 Locals.  The guidelines and application form is available here or at your Local Union’s office.

The first Friday of June each year, the EMLDC holds a Charity Golf tournament.  The proceeds are distributed to charities throughout the year.

The EMLDC, in conjunction with LECET, also holds five Members’ Events each year.  There is a spring and summer archery tournament, as well as a golf tournament, a crappie tournament, and a sporting clay tournament.

Voting is one of the most important things you can do as a Union member.  You can't vote if you’re not registered to vote.  Politics impact every aspect of your private and public life.  Prevailing wage, Right-to-Work for less, protections in the workplace and even your ability to collectively bargain can be impacted by election results.

For information on voting; like where to register, sample ballots, who is running for office, or to see if you are correctly registered to vote, CLICK HERE. 

Remember to vote in every election.  Your very ability to earn a good wage and for our signatory contractors to be competitive in the market depends on it.
